Red Devil Difference Maker Program
SHS seniors can choose a teacher, administrator or staff that was a βDifference Makerβ to them throughout their education from elementary through high school and honor them by gifting them a βI am a Red Devil Difference Makerβ shirt and a thank you card. Cards and shirts are available to pick up in the front office. The senior then delivers the shirt and card to their Difference Maker before school, after school or at lunch.
There will be three sessions during the year where groups, sports and clubs encouraged to participate. A senior who is not involved in any specific group can participate in any session of their choice. Seniors involved in multiple groups can participate once in each session their group is apart of.
We encourage students to document the delivery with a short video and picture. Optionally, students can submit their videos to RedDevilDifferenceMaker@gmail.com for a compilation video for social media and to enter themselves and their Difference Maker into a drawing for a Reams gift card. Gift cards will be awarded at the end of each session.
So gather your friends and tell your Difference Maker that they made a difference to you! Fall session is underway!
This program is sponsored by My Mayberry and Reams.
